Is this taking blood from donations from people with more genuine needs?
- pvarangot 8y agoYes, I mean I don't see how it couldn't be since everyone says blood donor supply is always lower than what's needed in almost any big city I've asked about.

- downrightmike 8y agoThere are whole companies that buy a lot of the donations from Red Cross etc and sell it for a nice profit.
